Flan Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Caramel Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the granulated sugar until it turns into a golden brown caramel. Carefully pour the caramel into a round baking dish, tilting to coat the bottom evenly.

  2. 2

    Blend the Flan Mixture

    In a blender, combine the eggs, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine and Bake

    Pour the flan mixture over the caramel in the baking dish. Place the baking dish in a larger baking pan and fill the larger pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the flan dish.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 50-60 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

  5. 5

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the flan from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. To serve, run a knife around the edges and invert onto a serving plate.
